Not too shabby for a healing threatless spell

i saw a 21k (20898) last night, rfc pulled the whole instance, they miss. saw a 21k then a 18k (2 novas and all were dead). then they died (i didn't hit them all at the first nova) i'm not sure whats the cap but i'm still finding out.

Holy Nova rockz.. just the mana cost is sick..better now than befor 3.0, but still high.. and did you see the glyph for it... lolage, wish they'd make one to reduce the healing and increase the damage aswell, no that would be a glyph worth looking into :P

Re: Holy Nova... wow (AOE cap skyrocket??)

I double checked it with a mage friend of mine, and without talents for either class to reduce mana cost, both Holy nova and Arcane explosion has a cost of 655 mana. I was shocked to see that the mana cost of the spell was reduced and the damage was increased, to the point where the spell is now viable for use. Of course it doesn't hit as hard as AE, but it does have that healing thing, which is good for run throughs and such.
